Encana's capital investment and operational activity in the first half of 2015 is delivering high-margin production growth from its four strategic assets. During July and August the company brought 72 new wells on production in the Permian, Eagle Ford, Duvernay and Montney. In August, these assets delivered total average production of 257,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOE/d), up from an average 223,000 BOE/d in the second quarter 2015.

'Our strategic assets are delivering impressive high-margin production growth and are on track to meet our fourth quarter expectations,' said Doug Suttles, Encana President and CEO. 'We remain focused on executing our highly disciplined capital program, strengthening our balance sheet and capturing sustainable efficiencies through innovation.'
